I've been dragged to bingo once or twice when I was in the UK, but never since I was here in the US. I don't really watch TV or movies here, so I've only really seen British bingo..... do Americans not use nicknames for the numbers? ...Because like you do... I'd always assumed it was universal, but when I googled I only came up with hits for British bingo calls. could be my google terms were biased....
